In the second part of our Ramadan miniseries, Ahmed talks about the
mosque and the challenges around building community. He’s joined by
Hind Makki, creator of Side Entrance, and Margari Aziza, a writer
and co-founder of The Muslim Anti-Racism Collaborative, to talk
about how the mosque can exclude women and black American Muslims,
and why third spaces have popped up to serve communities. Then,
Ahmed calls El-Farouk Khaki, the founder and Imam of the Toronto
Unity Mosque, to hear about radical tawhid and creating inclusive
spaces.
